4.1.3 LZV100 RailCom Component
RailCom is the next generation of DCC. With RailCom the
decoder can communicate back information to the command
station and to the handheld device that is controlling it. The
LZV100 has a built-in RailCom detector designed to be able to
receive the information that the decoder is transmitting. For more
precise location detection additional RailCom detectors can be
added.
The NMRA DCC Working Group is still defining the transmission
protocol. To provide them more time to work this out, we have
shipped the LZV100 without this software enabled. In the spring
of 2002 this specification should stabilize at which time we will
provide a software upgrade to enable this feature.
4.1.4 Layout Feedback Component
The LZV100 also has a dedicated processor for handling layout
feedback. This optional feature enables users to install advanced
detection and signaling systems.
